what he meant by the expression ''coffee
cooler" used in his speech against the

'you viii see apicture of the regiments
as they move into action. On the side of
the road, under cedar scopse, there are
three soldiers squatting down holding
their coffee in cups, cooling it. And there
they remain until alter the battle and then

ISLAND NOTES.
LAHArNA, Maui, May 9TH.

LAHAINA, Maui, May 9TH.
His Excellency Governor Baker left
town yesterday on tour of the island,
several friends. also the Police Magis-
trate and the Governors clerk accom-.
panying him.
Mr.. w. Y. Horner has concluded to
cut the remainder of his crop, having
previously thought to let it lie over till
the close of the year to come In with the
crop of 1888. He will therefore have an
output of nearly 1000 tons instead of, as
previously stated, LOO.
Rev. w. H. Barnes left for Waikiki
this morning, and will hold services
there tomorrow, returning thence on
! Monday evening. AN2
Mr.. A. Frank Cookies little steam
launch Montague steamed along here
on Monday last, bound to Hawaii; but
after getting well into the channel found
the wind too strong and put back to Olo-
walu, remained there all Tuesday. and
then came to Lahaina, remaining here
till yesterday, when she resumed her run
to windward. Two schooners for the
same island put in here and stayed two
days through stress of weather.
The foreign mail was landed about
p. M last Tuesday.
We are now having our regular La
haina summer Observation-Disclosures sea
breeze during the day and the cool
zephyr from the mountains at night.
People here are in hopes that water
may very soon be laid on. The summer
is now upon us, which means perfectly
rainless one, and so the more needful it
is that we have a bountiful supply OF
water for domestic use and irrigation.
Send along your piping, Mr.. Aholo, and
we shall feel refreshed.
Mr.. Edwin Jones has brought suit
against w. Y. Horner for cutting and
manning his fruit and other trees. This
case, however, is postponed till the 18th
instant, as Mr.. Horner is not prepared
for the defense. This is test case and
is of the greatest possible interest tc
those who have trees bordering on the
cane fields. Mr.. Horner attaches SINH
lar interest in the issue himself, as he
has used the axe very freely to the detri
ment of the trees, but without doubt
to corresponding advantage to himself
and the thriftiness of his crops. The
question is simply this: Can A cut
down the limbs of trees belonging to f
and in his (B's) lot, because they over
hang A's field? Should not at any rate
B be notified of A's intention to cut? In
any case the owner of the fruit and Other
trees is pecuniarily loser by the lop
ping and cutting, and we await with in
terest the outcome. ANON.

When the big tea ship was towed
into Tacoma harbor a few days ago
the officer OF the deck, as is customa-

Many people take newspapers. bat
few preserve them; yet the most in
teresting reading is to be found in
a file OF old newspapers. 1t brings
us the very age, with all its hustle
and every affair, and marks the spirit
and the genius more than the labori-
ous effort OF the historian. We can
not read a paper dated half century
ago without knowing that almost
every name then printed is cut on
a tombstone at the head OF an cpl
taph. The lawyer that offers his
service to plead in the case of others
in the lower court, is now pleading
in the court above; the doctor that
advertises his medicines and cures,
has followed the sable train OF his
patients: the merchant who offered
his wares cheaper than the cheapest
has gone into everlasting liquidation;
and the actor who made others laugh
and weep, can now only furnish a
skull for his successor in Hamlet"
